Version 1.0.11 of Trials Rising has gone live for all platforms including Nintendo Switch. Introducing Bike Leaderboards, the ability to disable ghosts, and plenty of other fixes and improvements, check out the full patch notes from Ubisoft below.

BIKE LEADERBOARDS

Are you an apex Alpaca rider? Maybe you dominate on the Donkey. With the release of this patch, bike curious players will be able to compete across Trials Rising’s world of tracks on any available bike and save their time to bike-specific leaderboards. Bike leaderboards will be available on in-game Trials Tracks, Stadium Finals & Ninja Tracks for any bike that is available to ride. Bike leaderboards are accessed from track leaderboards under the BIKE tab. Bike leaderboards will only start to record entries after the patch is released, times made on different bikes prior to the patch will not appear on bike leaderboards.

DISABLE GHOSTS

The thrill of competition is a big part of Trials Rising but sometimes you might just want to have some alone time on the track. With the new Disable Ghost option found in the Game Options menu, you can remove most ghosts from the single-player experience of Trials Rising. No ghosts on tracks, in loading screens or the results screens. There are a few exceptions: ghosts will still appear when playing Challengers, completing Contracts that require beating a ghost and in Stadium Finals.

SKIP IT: SKIP HEAT & SKIP SONG

Sometimes you’re just not feeling it and want to move on to the next. If we’re talking about tracks in private multiplayer or songs on the soundtrack we’ve got two new options for you. In Private Multiplayer matches the host can skip the current track with the restart button and move on to the next track in the playlist.

At nearly any point in the game, it’s also now possible to skip the current song playing. This can be done with a push of a button or through the pause menu. This feature also includes a new UI element that displays the name of the current song in the upper right corner of the screen. This element appears briefly when a new song starts and when first loading a new track.

GIGACRATE

The collection of bike & rider gear available in Gear Crates is getting a lot larger. Up until now, Gear Crates have included around 25-30 customization items. The new gigafied Gear Crates have 167 different items to potentially pull from when opened.

OTHER FIXES & IMPROVEMENTS

Bikes

[ALL PLATFORMS]The order of bikes in the bike selection menu adjusted to move Helium & Donkey directly after the Mantis

Stickers/Decals

[ALL PLATFORMS] New stickers, including some created by and for Trials Elite players are available in Track Editor & Sticker Store

Track Editor

[ALL PLATFORMS] Fixed an issue that caused icons to flicker when viewing the “Display” category in the decal tool

Things are starting to heat up in the Arena of Menace! Prepare your fingers and thumbs for a new unique challenge coming to the world of Trials Rising. On Thursday, March 26, take a trip down memory lane with the Microtracks Classic Track Pack and revisit a time when Trials tracks were very short and very hard.

This track pack is all about straightforward speedrunning and trying again and again. A throwback to the original Trials browser games from 20 years past, this track pack includes 12 arena-based microtracks including 4 Medium, 4 Hard & 4 Extreme tracks. Located on the World Map in North Africa, each track will take around 10-15 seconds for the seasoned player. Checkpoints? The Arena of Menace don’t need no checkpoints! These short tests of Trials skill must be passed without faults, start to finish. If you strive for perfection you’ll have to put in the practice on these delightfully technical tracks.

Get ready to jump on your bike and get to grinding, Rider! Starting March 26th, we’ll see you on the Microtrack leaderboards.

Trials Rising's fifth season, Arena of Menace, is heading to Switch in NA/EU on March 12th, 2020, but our friends in Japan will have to wait a bit longer. The update has been announced for March 26th, 2020, and it will include the same content as other regions. Check out a recap of what to expect from this season here.

Trials Rising is going to kick off its Arena of Menace event on March 12th, 2020, and as you might expect, it's chock-full of new content. Get the full rundown of this event below.

Our Expedition has been fun, but it’s time to get back to work. This season you’ll step into the arena and get ready to hone your skills in pure and true Trials fashion – trying again! Beginning on March 12, Season 5 – Arena of Menace will kick off and over the following weeks will see the release of new outfits, bike skins, poses, animations, stickers, helmet accessories, a brand-new fun bike, and the Microtracks Classic Track Pack.

RANKED MULTIPLAYER SEASON 4

It just wouldn’t be a new season without some fresh rewards to help show off your multiplayer dominance. Work your way through the ranks and earn the all-new Golden Body Cast Outfit. You’ll look like the King of the Tracks in this Tut inspired outfit. Hail to the king!

NEW CUSTOMIZATION ITEMS

A new season of Trials means new ways to keep your rider looking fresh. Arena of Menace will allow you to acknowledge the struggle of trying again with the Body Cast Outfit. You may be blown away by all of our exciting, explosive content, but our Specialist outfit will keep your rider just as safe as the bomb squad armor it’s inspired by.

Mix these outfits with some of the new poses, animations, stickers, and helmet accessories to bring a new level of customization to your rider. Don’t forget to modernize your Alpaca with the Super Elektro Skin or add a little danger to your Mantis with the Turbo Fury Skin!

Arena of Menace doesn’t just bring with it a host of new items to make your rider and bike look like new, but it also brings with it a brand-new fun bike to freshen up your experience as well. With considerably higher reverse speed than any bike in Trials Rising, the King Crab also presents fresh possibilities for builders looking to explore new obstacle types in the track editor. Whether you’re looking to ride low, climb high, or race in reverse, the King Crab Fun Bike will get you where you need to go.

MICROTRACKS CLASSIC TRACK PACK

This track pack is all about straightforward speedrunning and trying again and again. A throwback to the original Trials browser games from 20 years past, this track pack includes 12 arena based microtracks. These short technical tracks will require practice and patience to conquer. You’ll also have to do each microtrack all in one go, there are no checkpoints in the Arena of Menace. The Microtracks Classic Track Pack will release on March 26. Stay tuned for more!

EASTER EVENT

April 2nd will mark the return of the Trials Rising’s original seasonal event, the Easter Event. During the event collect 10 hidden collectables to earn the exclusive Chicken helmet. The Easter Bunny outfit will be back and available in the Bundle Store. Leveling up during the event will reward event Gear Crates that can contain some additional Easter themed customization items. If you missed the Easter Event or any of these items the first time around you’ve got another opportunity this season.

Today, 5 new tracks are available in Trials Rising in the Polar Expedition track pack. You can check out all the details on these brand-new tracks below. Grab your gloves and boots, Riders, cause these tracks are ice cold!

PERMAFROST

You like air? Cause Permafrost has air. You’ll need to really watch your airtime on this track as you string together jumps through a stunning village in Greenland that’s surrounded by glaciers. Will you use the Rhino to control your air time? Or go for the Mantis to possibly skip some jumps? This track has several options to bring home the victory.

GLACIAL MASS

What’s cooler than being cool? Glacial Mass. This track starts you on a glacier and takes you around sinking icebergs that will put your timing skills to the test. If you hear ice cracking on this track, it probably is, so move fast, Riders!

INUIT’S PARADISE

Been spending most our rides, racing through Inuit’s Paradise. The artic sky complete with Aurora Borealis gives this track the best vibes in the entire Expedition. Don’t get too distracted by the sights, though, as this track makes you pull out some serious technical skills. You may see a Snowman and a Snow Squirrel hanging out, but you’ll need some Snow Bunnyhops if you’re going to get on this leaderboard.

OUT COLD

This track will bring back some serious X-Files nostalgia. Starting during a storm near a military station, you’ll be plunged underground where the military would rather you not see. Secrets are contained within. Will you find them?

ICEFERNO

According to Dante, the final level of Hell was covered in ice. Where Inferno takes you into the depth of the fire, Iceferno will take you further into the ice. The Extreme track of the pack, only the top Riders will conquer Iceferno.

We’d like to thank you all again for your continued support. More updates will be coming later, so stay tuned. Until then, we’ll see you on the leaderboards.
